The key to ultimate sharpness is method of burr removal. You tore it off which works fine, but fatiguing it with strops with compound or on ceramic can help shrink the burr. Also, not even making one in the first place works best, and makes the strongest longest lasting edge. Cut perpendicular into the stone a few swipes and then sharpen strokes until you make the smallest noticeable burr, or none at all. Magnification helps, and a microfiber cloth helps feel for the micro wire edge. Also none of this matters and your result was great anyway. Nerd stuff.

Personally, I would flatten out the back too (just a couple sideways strokes after doing the angled part should be more than plenty if you've flattened it before. I found that that step significantly increases the sharpness). And then use the inside of an old leather belt + a few drops of simple handy oil to remove the burrs. (Not a 'professional grade' strop with stropping compound to polish it... Going for function, not making a makeup mirror ;)). Just a few strokes backside and frontside. Works very well, _and_ you've simultaneously lightly oiled the bare metal, preventing rust from forming. I found this works very well, even with the cheapest aluminium oxide dual sided sharpening stones you can find (the ones that are €3~4 euro at any hardware store). You know the ones.. I believe they're like 150 and 400-ish grit. I always manage to get a razor sharp edge using this method :) *[Those cheap stones also function quite well as flattening / dressing stones. You'll wear them out quite fast, but it's - once again - the cheapest option :)] Anyways - I know that everyone has an opinion on doing it 'better'. But cheaper... Not so much, right? ;) * still need to find me a honing guide under €10.. I've wanted one for awhile now, but the cheap ones all seem to have obvious flaws ;/ -- Cool channel btw. I like the different camera angles, so I can properly see what you're doing Cheers from Amsterdam

Ive made my own honing guides from scrap wood, just cut it at a 30° angle, cut some groves on one side for the chisel to lay inbetween and some groves on the side that touches the stone so the water can escape. Might not be perfect but better result than freehanding it! Its just a little ghetto, should probably just get the real thing!

Hats off to those that have spent the literal years dedicating themselves to this particular skill set. That said, its just too easy to use a honing guide nowadays. For the consistency and ease of using, its arguable if learning to free hand is even worth it for 99% of wood workers. Setting up a jig and having a station for everything streamlines the process to a point nearly identical to just free handing it. Stropping keeps the edge longer and you can free hand that with no issues.
@formes23883 ай бұрын
I have a honing guide, 3/4 of the time I'm not sure where it is, and end up sharping the edge by hand. I don't know why - but I've never found keeping the edge square and flat difficult. It might be that I default to having the sharpening stone at an angle - akin to writing on a peace of paper which makes it easier to have fluid straight motion of arm without needing to bend the elbow? - and to my understanding, that is the most likely place an angle is going to be altered from.

I only strop with compound for carving tools. For me it's way better to maintain a straight bevel (hollow ground in the middle just to reduce sharpening time) instead of convex one like you get with stropping or micro bevel chicanery. Most of the time just touch it to a 8k stone for a few seconds and go.

Leather strop will give it a beautiful razor finish. Put some compound on it and pull backwards on the bevel and the backside of the edge. It will wiggle the burr back and forth until it comes off clean.
@da54177Ай бұрын
Dragging the edge through end grain can work to remove the burr, but it doesn't give the best result. If you wajt your edge as sharp as possible, and much more durable, you should take backward passes on the stone, alternating between the front and back if the bevel, continuing until you've eliminated the burr completely. This is called apexing. If you want something even sharper than that, go to a strop with compound.

The angle is changing because youre rubbing it back and forth -> because the pressure balance is changing between forward and backward strokes.

Don't give up, I have the shakiest hands of anyone you might know and I still freehand most everything and get great results. I rough hollow grind most everything tho, so when I take it to the stones I have very stable registration with the tip and the heel of the bevel. I just kinda rock it back a bit to feel it sit down on the stone, lock that angle into my hands and start going to town, stopping every once in a while to make sure I haven't strayed from my angle. Super duper easy with thick plane irons and chisels or when you have a shallow bevel angle. I struggle a bit with my couple or crappy thin chisels i keep at 45° cause the bevel is so small.

pro tip: you should always sharpen a chisel a second time at an extra 3-5° angle so you have a very very slight chamfer on the tip, this stops the tool from getting massive dents in the edge, and also increases the sharpness, and helps wood fibres split easier on entry.

The back two legs have wheels the front two do not , the tread mill is coarse like sand paper, we will say that you check level at the start , as this expirament goes on you will see that material is being removed from the front two legs making them shorter , where as the wheels on the back two legs allow for them to role over the gritty surface and not loose and length on the two back legs . After a bit you check level again and the angle has changed because the surface that was being ground is no longer reliably where it started in fact that the contact point that originally made it level is actually not even there any more it's been worn away altogether

Honing guides work great. Just never use sandpaper. It does a crap job and doesnt last. If you're using chisels enough to need to sharpen them then you are doing work that will allow you to invest in some proper stones. If not. You probably shouldn't be using them because youre not using them properly.
